  • Some tips for controling weeds

    Even more challenging than growing plants is weed control. Here are some tips:

    • Get rid of grasses and perennial weeds before planting
    • Avoid planting into weedy beds
    • Don't leave bare soil
    • Remove weeds before they go to seed
    • Don't shoot lawn clippings into planting beds

  • Pruning

    Regular pruning helps to improve the quality and size of flowers, fruits, leaves and stems. There are several plant groups, like shrubs, trees, climbers, hedges, roses, and fruits that need different treatments in different parts of the year. Some general rules of thumb may apply, but there are also lots of exceptions. Consult books or the internet, what is in the best interest of your shrubs or trees in your garden.

    Always use the proper equipment and make sure it is sharp to make clean cuts, to prevent damage and bad re-growth. Also think about your own safety. Wear goggles and gloves if necessary and be carefull with (step)ladders and handling your equipment.

    Pick up and remove all prunings. Try to burn them, especially those showing signs of disease or pest damage.

  • What is a perennial plant?

    A perennial plant or perennial is a plant that lives for more than two years. Gardeners typically use this term for winter hardy perennial herbaceous plants. Scientifically,woody like shrubs and trees are also perennial in their habit.

    Perennials, especially small flowering, grow and bloom over the spring and summer and then die back every autumn and winter, then return in the spring from their root-stock rather than seeding themselves as an annual plant does. These are known as herbaceous perennials. However, depending on the rigors of local climate, a plant that is a perennial in its native habitat, or in a milder garden, may be treated as an annual and planted out every year.
